I'm a baseball fan more than a football fan. Changing now.

Time for the divisional round questions! This week you're just predicting the game winners, but each game will be worth two points this time around. The form is in the first post.

Deadline will be 2:30 PM on Saturday 1/14.

Oh yeah, and to avoid bias this time I made my predictions before anyone else submitted.

D3f3nd3r · Post Post #17 (isolation #10) » Wed Jan 11, 2017 4:19 pm

Waiting on submissions from BROseidon, Haschel, Kuroi, Kdowns, and JerryArr.

New players are also accepted to predict each round! You'll be at a points deficit because of the round that already occurred, but don't let that stop you!

In post 16, RedCoyote wrote:Packers and Cowboys will be the game to watch, imo. I think all the others will be one-sided.

I see Seattle/Atlanta and KC/Pittsburgh staying somewhat close to be honest. Pittsburgh is certainly favored in the latter, but I doubt they'll win by much if they do. And Seahawks/Falcons could be very close in that it's a great offense against a great defense and a mediocre offense against a mediocre defense.

Jerry and BRO you only have another hour!

Round 3 predictions are now ready. Once again you're just predicting the individual games, but their value has doubled again to four points each. After this week everyone will also earn 0, 3, or 6 points based on their Conference Championship predictions!

Deadline is 1pm on Sunday 1/23.

Aronis! Kmd! Haschel! BRO! Jerry!

Any new people still interested in just taking guesses!

D3f3nd3r · Post Post #29 (isolation #16) » Mon Jan 23, 2017 2:33 pm

And it's still technically anyone's game! 24 points are up for grabs on Super Bowl Sunday, including 6 for our pre-postseason predictions, 8 for the Super Bowl itself, and 10 for other predictions related to the big game. Good luck to everyone!

The final round is now up and will remain up until 4pm on Super Bowl Sunday (2/5).

At lease you're better than Aronis and Racefan (and BRO but he only submitted once)?

D3f3nd3r · Post Post #34 (isolation #18) » Mon Jan 23, 2017 3:02 pm

So far seven of your ten picks (not including the SB) were for teams in what is apparently the NFL Evil Empire ("source")

D3f3nd3r · Post Post #35 (isolation #19) » Mon Jan 23, 2017 3:02 pm

Llama picked against the Packers in both of their wins but otherwise has been perfect.

D3f3nd3r · Post Post #37 (isolation #20) » Mon Jan 23, 2017 3:04 pm

Oh. I guess the source is legit then

D3f3nd3r · Post Post #48 (isolation #21) » Fri Feb 03, 2017 5:48 am

Kdowns, Poker, Haschel and BRO yet to submit!

D3f3nd3r · Post Post #49 (isolation #22) » Sun Feb 05, 2017 9:57 am

Four minutes! Last chance!

D3f3nd3r · Post Post #50 (isolation #23) » Sun Feb 05, 2017 10:12 am

And that's time. 13 submissions for this final round. Good luck to everyone, and enjoy the game!

Note:

This Trump tweet wasn't in the allowed timeframe for the Does It Happen question but otherwise would count.

D3f3nd3r · Post Post #51 (isolation #24) » Sun Feb 05, 2017 10:39 am

Fourteen, actually. Someone submitted literally four seconds after I sent that so why not accept it.
